Elsi in Care Homes

MariCare Solutions includes a number of benefits for Residents, Nurses, Relatives and the Care Home Provider: the common benefits being improved Service and Quality. Being proactive, MariCare Solution helps the right nurses to be at the right place at the right time.

Routine checks are reduced to save limited resources and improve the privacy of the residents. Quality of life is hugely improved having the constant assurance that help is always available when needed: 24/7, 365 days a year.

Elsi Smart Floor is the first system to successfully use capacitive technology to track the movement and position of a human body within a room. With over a decade of experience and more than 3000 rooms/apartments installed around the world, we are the most experienced provider of Smart Floor Technology.

After a 4 year pilot and study of Elsi Smart Floor by the Finnish National Institute for Health and Welfare, Elsi was shown to reduce falls in the elderly by as much as 97% at certain times of the day by providing staff with an early warning of the movement of an at risk resident.

The electronic components of Elsi are housed and protected within a discreet skirting conduit which means that in the event of failure, the component can quickly and easily be replaced with virtually no disruption to the resident or facility.

With the latest version of the Elsi User Interface, you have the ability to set thresholds for what is normal behaviour for a particular resident and be alerted if the resident behaviour changes from this.

More than two million dollars worth of electronics have been embedded during construction, that register when a resident walks into a room. Each footfall can be seen in a control room, again, monitored constantly.

The sensors are able to delineate between living and inanimate objects, and should a resident trip or fall, the pressure of their body on the floor triggers an alarm that alerts all staff, as well as logging their location. It means that the real risk in a fall or trip, that being unable to call for help and the possibility of being left unfound for hours, or even days, is completely ameliorated by the floor sensors.
